2021 Disney Holiday - Is this a good price?

[ChrisTUK]

We've been to Florida numerous times over the years but have never done an 'exclusive' Disney World holiday so are new to this.

We're looking to go for 2 weeks on 21st April '21 and have been quoted £2285pp based on the following for a family of 4: -

Flights from Bristol (local enough for us)
Transfers to and from the SFB airport
Art of Animation Standard Room
14 Day Ultimate Disney Tickets
14 Day 'standard' Dining Plan

Is this a reasonable price? As we haven't done this before we don't have a true comparison although from previous years staying off-site has soon racked up by the time parking, food, tickets etc. are factored in.

No! Wait until free dining in announced late April. That price seems way to much. Free dining unlikely to include standard room at Art Of Animation.

It depends how desperate you are to stay at Art of Animation. If you are willing to be flexible on resort, you could probably get a moderate with free QS dining (if offered) for similar... you can then pay to upgrade to the standard ddp if you wish. So maybe wait to see what offers there are.

Well I think thats a great price, because just priced up AofA your dates with park tickets with Disney and it was £4296 thats no flights no dining, even if you wait for free dining Art of Animation doesnt usually come under free dining, What company are you dealing with.? 4 x14 day ultimate tickets would be around £1600.

Thanks for the feedback so far.

This is direct through TUI as one of their packages.

OP - if you're happy than go for it. You'll get varying opinions on here but don't let people put you off if you're happy.

I have to agree! I actually think that's a really good price!

We've just booked for Sept '21 & paid for the regular disney dining plan but we're staying a value. For us to get regular disney dining plan would mean we need to stay at a deluxe resort which in actual fact would have cost us about £1200pp more (so £2400 in total extra)! We booked with Charter Travel and when I priced up the same package through Disney without any flights it was a lot more expensive, so I think we got a pretty good deal.

It may be worth you dropping Charter Travel an email and seeing what price they can give you too

The cost of the standard dining plan will be £2841 with AOA and tickets making it around £7000 depending on ages of your kids (making flights roughly about £2140 which is good) going from your quote of £2285pp.

If you waited for free dining(if of course offered) you could for instance go to a moderate resort, say POFQ, upgrade to the standard dining plan for around £5800. I think that would be roughly a £1200 cheaper than going to Art Of Animation and paying for the standard dining plan. This is going from Disney pricing.

I’m not trying to put anyone off. If AOA is a dream resort then go for it but just giving my opinion as that’s a lot of money.
